Take A Chance

Opportunities come and go,
Sometimes they are very slow.
I wait and wait until they come,
And then I give them a go!
Opportunities come and go,
They give me a chance to grow.
I learn from my mistakes and do whatever it takes!
If I miss out, I will not shout.
I will try and try, but I will never cry!
Opportunities come and go,
I shouldn’t wait til it’s too late.
I take a chance and then advance,
I make it count, as I shout, “I can do this!”
Opportunities can rise and shine at any time.
They could be here, there or anywhere...
